- Picturesque Dunedin, with its fascinating war history, is a must-see on Tony’s Tour of Duty. This charming city is home to stories of WW1 that were often quite scandalous! Tony ventures to the famous Otago University to learn about the plastic surgeon who created a radical breakthrough for his patients, and has a chat with the cheeky nieces of a soldier who was armed with a paintbrush, not a gun. The Dunedin Roadshow kicks off in an historic setting with a grand musical entrance as the Dunedin locals share touching stories of their ancestors, the lost pay book and a violin that was carried and played through Gallipoli.
Well 9 years after this filming (2014), I find myself in the show! My late husband would have been 90ys old today, and there he is on the screen next to me. He was a NZ army veteran himself. We took along some inherited family items including the great coat of Private William SOUTTER who departed for the Boer war on SS “Kent”, 12 March 1902.
My grandfather who had emigrated to Dunedin, fought in the first world war at Gallipoli, and every major battle in France. I hope that I would have had the courage to refuse to fight. The courage to do so would be, I believe, greater than that required to join in with the majority.

This highlights the travesty that war is. Generations on, the wounds are still fresh and being felt as if the losses were yesterday.
Young, healthy men, sent to die, because fat, egotistical old men can't be civil enough to compromise and give a little.
My heart aches for all of these people.

McIndoe was great, but followed Harold Gilles by many years. Credit where credit is due.
